Based around the DERIC reading skills and incorporating phonics too (explained in the resource) using the text Worrysaurus by Rachel Bright. and with those little wordlings, he calmed his busy brain, since when the sun is shining, why worry it will rain?” Her written work includes children’s stories and poems, clever advertising copy and lots of other stuff besides. Her illustrative work is a smorgasboard of giant, hand-printed poems, mind-bogglingly detailed gouache illustrations and a cacophony of quirky prints and etchings. La temática sobre la que gira la historia es el miedo en diferentes vertientes; miedo a lo desconocido, a lo inesperado o a la incertidumbre que nos ocasiona la vida diaria, así como la forma que tiene de paralizarnos.

She once won a week-long date in Tahiti, with ‘Man of the Millenium’ featured in Marie Claire magazine (and then spent a long time living it down).

A modern Wemberly Worried-featuring dinosaurs!-for today's young readers, with reassuring, lighthearted text and charming illustrations sure to calm the anxious butterflies in any child's tummy. Personalmente me ha parecido una historia maravillosa, muy didáctica y lúdica que trabaja las emociones y la forma de tratarlas dirigida y adaptada a los pequeños. También me parece muy apropiado como recurso educativo no solo por sus increíbles y simpáticas imágenes o su motivador personaje, sino por todas las opciones que ofrece para trabajar tanto en familia como en el aula.Like many children, Worrysaurus feels more anxious in situations that he can’t fully control. Having a plan keeps him calm at first, but when he starts to think about all the things that MIGHT go wrong, his mood changes from buoyant to deflated.

La edad ideal a la que yo recomendaría este libro es entre los 3 y los 7 años, pues tanto su mensaje como su profundidad son completamente adaptables y explotados en función de las habilidades del educador. Five activities based around the DERIC reading skills; decode, explain, retrieve, interpret and choice using the text The Worrysaurus by Rachel Bright.She collects alphabets and hats and has a Nissan Figaro car which everyone says looks like a matchbox toy. Sin duda alguna el trabajo emocional es imperante en las primeras etapas de la vida, no solo para ayudar a los pequeños a conocerse y entenderse, sino también para ayudarlos a saber expresarse y gestionar sus emociones. Activity 8 - Starts with a word class activity and then moves on to read the rest of the text, developing a love of reading and reading for pleasure. It concludes with KS1 SATs style questions. She explores the lovliness of words and the magic of pictures, revelling in a world of jam-eating miniature bears and other made-up animals.

El preocupasaurio" es un álbum ilustrado infantil perteneciente a la nueva colección de Rachel Bright en donde la figura principal y protagonista de la historia se corresponde con uno de los personajes que más pasión, admiración y curiosidad despierta en los niños de las primeras etapas; el dinosaurio.The book introduces the idea of butterflies representing a worry and the feeling of having butterflies in your stomach. I would discuss this with a class, and it would help them to talk about their feelings, for example: “I have a big butterfly today”. Younger children who tend to struggle wording their emotions/ feelings could really benefit from this. We would create a list of things to do when you have a worry, inspired by the book, such as sharing it with a trusted adult and doing things that make you happy. I would give each child a picture of a happy box and ask them to draw or write all of the things that bring them joy. I would then put these up on our well being wall and encourage the children to use it when they are feeling blue.
